School appointment

I have appointments to view schools, in the next month, as we're transferring from statement to EHCP. I would like to be somewhat 'prepared' for when I'm due to name a school.

What concerns me is that I see the good in everyone and generally believe what I'm told. How on earth can I see the difference between a sales pitch and a genuinely good school? I'm stressing so much and am terrified of making the wrong choice.

Id love to advise but my DS is currently in a school because I fell for the sales pitch

My plan when he moves is to ask specific questions, ask how the interventions look within his day. Ask how they will monitor progress and how this will be communicated to me. Then to email the school to confirm what we discussed. Then ask to visit again to see some of the interventions in place with other students.
